Chapter 990

Granny Meng and Elder Meng

“If Elder Meng isn’t around, I’ll send you on your way myself!” Mu Yu brayed, assuming Gui Huanyin was guarding the exit, meaning he had a chance to fight Granny Meng one on one.

Mu Yu cast Contiguous Horizon Formation on himself and then charged. Granny Meng defended herself with her hairpin again, their battle taking out the skeletons.

“I thought you wanted to see my husband. What’s the rush?”

“I’d prefer to kill you.”

Granny Meng summoned a crimson snake from the red soup, warding off the repaired skeletons to vacate the area. The snake hammered the ground, splitting it. Granny Meng cackled as a red casket rose from underground, sardonically saying, “Long-time no see, Dear. I’ve missed you.”

The lid on the casket turned into a puddle of red liquid, while the zombified Elder Meng wearing a black straw hat revealed his amputated legs. “Old wench, I’ll make you pay for this!”

“Don’t you miss the old days? Kekeke.”

“Your viciousness knows no bounds, does it?” fumed Mu Yu, feeling sorry for Elder Meng even though he was not a fan of Life and Death Sect.

“Dear, I was convinced you couldn’t escape from here, but I was then told Mu Yu could rescue you. I’ve been curious about how you managed to strike up an unlikely friendship with True God’s disciple.”

“True God’s disciple? I don’t recognise that old man over there, but you better pray to whoever it is you pray to that I don’t get my hands on you.”

“Tsk, tsk, how will you do that with no limbs and your soul that I’ve extracted?” Granny Meng zipped over and strangled Elder Meng. “Your throat is now in my hand. What are you going to do?”

Granny Meng ruthlessly tore Elder Meng’s head off his shoulders, giving even Mu Yu an itchy sensation by his neck. Though it did not kill Elder Meng, his scowl showed just how much it hurt.

“I can recover even if you shatter me to smithereens as long as I’m here, you wench!”

The only reason Elder Meng’s limbs did not regrow despite being connected to the active formation in there was due to a special method of amputation that Granny Meng employed – turning his arms into her walking stick.

“I didn’t intend to kill you. I merely want to know what you are to Mu Yu?” Granny Meng wrapped Elder Meng’s open wounds in blood and then sealed him back in his casket.

“Pfft, what sort of curiosity is that?” Mu Yu ribbed.

“Gui Yuzi claimed you’d help him escape, but I don’t buy it. I’d like to see you help him escape,” Granny Meng threatened while clutching Elder Meng’s skull.

“You’re going to help me escape this place?” Elder Meng questioned.

“That’ll depend on my mood.”

Mu Yu chopped apart a skeleton in his way, then swung at Granny Meng. In response, she called forth ghouls from her hairpin. Unlike other ghouls he had encountered before, Granny Meng’s ghouls knew how to evade and work their way closer. Nonetheless, Mu Yu’s formation pushed them back once they were in range. The troubling part was that Granny Meng’s nonchalant reaction insinuated they could handle an Ascension Realm opponent.

“Do you know why I’m guarding this place?”

Mu Yu activated Primordial Yin Yang underfoot, casting it to his sword afterwards for a boost.

Irate with Mu Yu’s attitude, Granny Meng answered her own question. “Because most of the twins here drank my soup before they died.”

Granny Meng brought out a bowl, which was made out of bones, of red soup and spurt the soup onto the twins. Though the bowl was not large, the soup was seemingly infinite. Each of the skeletons the soup stained would grow a pair of red eyes.

“Hehehe, even the current patriarch once drank my Emotion Severing Soup.” Granny Meng licked her dry lips.

Mu Yu vigilantly monitored the six skeletons that besieged him in the blink of an eye. “Six Ascension Realm twins…”
